VIDEO: Shake It Up with the Magnifying Glass Die

Hi friends! Natasha Polite of Polite Creations joining you with a card using the NEW Magnifying Glass die set from the Case Closed collection.


Check out the video below to watch me create. a fun shaker card using only the die set. Hope you enjoy!

I began by die cutting all of the dies from the set. I used a Clear Card Panel, Pitch Black, Ultra Pink, and a craft foam. I also had A2 panels of Deluxe White, Dove White, and Papaya cardstock.

I used Orange + Shimmer, Fuschia + Gold, and White Acrylic Sprays to add color to a Deluxe White panel. I then used White Hero Paste and a makeshift stencil to add letters from one of the sentiment dies to the panel. I also added a Lemon Drop splatter throughout.


While that dried, I assembled the magnifying glass.

I layered the panel onto Papaya cardstock. I then adhered the "You Did It!" into place and added my shaker mix before placing the magnifying glass. Finally, I used some of the shaker mix to embellish the panel. Now my card is complete.


Thank you for joining me today!


Happy crafting,
